2 / 3 = 0.666
Damnit, im gonna have to go buy and STi and try to remake that car now lol
lol. i love that machine.
2 / 3 = 0.666
will come on it said it wasnt made by subie so it is part cosworth,and ruf.
Resize sig area!
it is nice though

the FQ400 was not built from factory by Mitsubishi.Originally Posted by stikiller
its a USDM 2.5 bottom end
everything else is whatever the s204 STi comes with, except for suspension (litchfield tuned) turbo which i beleive to be a 20g like the evo XI in japan, i beleive Cosworth just cammed it, and RUF was involved for brakes.
Porsche and Subaru have always been involved. just wish i could say the same for mitsubishi lol...
my point for this video is, this car can be easily built by your avg joe for about 10,000 on top of what the car costs.. and even @ 415bhp.. you can easily make more than that for the same price.
mitsubishi... dodge... eagle.. chrysler... lol.. you get the point.
2 / 3 = 0.666
fucking sweet.

If they had to change the turbo to get 320 wheel (which is about what 415BHP breaks down into) thats a tad sad. I know that can be had on the stocker at around 19.5 psi or so. I feel that teh FQ400 is rated very low. I think that car is putting down at least 350whp.
repost, the other is done by 5th gear on youtube i think though. Prodrive P2
stll a sick car

The FQ400 isn't made by Mitsubishi, it's made by Ralliart and some other third party companies.
Too bad we don't get the JDM/EDM spec motors in the USDM STis.
yeah.. the Type 25 puts down just about what its rated at... hahah its pretty cool
2 / 3 = 0.666
yeah... in my opinion, this beats out the FQ400. I'd like to see this one chase down that lambo as well. You know how we jdm boys and girls love picking on exotics.
More skills than you can handle... mountain wa subarashii desu ne... honto.

Thats awesome and easy to replicate or just as easy to make it better
20g or green turbo
Exhaust
ECU
KW Coiloverss
Whiteline swaybars
ALK
Those brakes are available for 2500.00 us or you can get a set of stoptechs for half that.
Thats pretty much all you need.
you're still a fag, but correct.
2 / 3 = 0.666
Youre still a cock, but I am still correct
all shit aside, i'd like to drop the beef. regardless it'll still be cool to get a ruled boxing match with ya if its cool.. just so i can stop vibrating.
you're now my friend. no choice.
2 / 3 = 0.666
Awesome we are best buddies now.
Boxing is good for me, pretty much when ever.
cool. gloves on. we'll do it sometime after new year's
2 / 3 = 0.666
nice
The stock STI brakes are pretty fucking great as it is with a good set of pads.
........just like I had a 3sum with Charlize Theron and Scarlett Johansson.
Yeah, right! How so?
The only thing they have in common is a flat (boxer) engine design. That's it. So I guess Mitsubishi and BMW are also involved cause they both have inline 4s
Porsche themselves do not waste their time with Subaru nonsense.......
Yeah, VW gave the old Bug flat 4 engine design blueprints to Subaru back in the 70's, but as far as anything German on a Subaru........uh........NO.
Alois Ruf has enough serious business with 911s and their owners, and for them to fall back 20 steps and start modifying Subarus must mean that Subaru is desperate for some know-how, seeing that they needed a 2.5 to compete with Mitsubishi's 2.0 liter.
The Porsche "big reds" have been excellent brake upgrades for a lot of German cars over the years; it was first done on various VWs and Audis and Mercedes.
Now, simple brackets made it possible to install them on Subarus. That's good, but if reminds me of the Isuzu Impulse with it's "handling by Lotus" advertising schemes back in the late 80's.........
It's all advertising BS.
And NO, the STi tranny (although a strong one) is NOT made by Porsche.
If you want a Porsche/Subaru hybrid, why not sell the Sti motor for $5000 (someone told me they go for that much, I don't know) and add another $3000, buy and install a older 911 3.3 Turbo engine, which after getting Raceware headstuds would handle over 800whp with other bolt-ons.
Then you'd have a fast, realiable car that actually SOUNDS GOOD too.
Enter turn 10 at Road Atlanta at about 160mph and tell me the stock brakes are great.

LOL, you might want to do some research before you open your mouth...........just like I had a 3sum with Charlize Theron and Scarlett Johansson.

david got owned!1
david, trust me.. yeah the 2.5 liter is great... but i'd rather have a jdm 2.0.. why do EJ20s still out torque 4g63's?
2 / 3 = 0.666
daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn i want
92mm bore
we in the USA already get the better engine in the STi...the 2.5 liter
house of turbo subarus...its all we'll drive
that's some nice stuff there, i don't care who you are! lol. loving the brake set up and the subtle under hood mods. lol made to look stock FTW
Thats why there is the Blitzen Legacy as well as the WRX Type Euro (Porsche modified bugeye WRX wagon).
SOA put a 2.5 in the car since Americans are fat and want torquier motors. Other things also changed for the US market were seats and spring rates (much softer).
Umm, Lotus really did help design that car. It shares a lot with the Lotus Elan.The Porsche "big reds" have been excellent brake upgrades for a lot of German cars over the years; it was first done on various VWs and Audis and Mercedes.

You can also get a classic Porsche and retrofit an STI motor into it, search for Porscharu and you'll find a couple.
02 WRX Sport Wagon
Uh...... I quote:
"One of the most interesting facts behind the creation of the new Liberty Blitzen is the design philosy. Subaru went to industrial design specialists Porsche Design for help in designing much of the bodywork for the Blitzen."
I read that as spoilers, which is obviously the "Porsche-like" brake ducting "job".
Evidently a ricer will concentrate on this as being one of the things that "makes" a car, right?
Maybe I stand corrected. But to me.......a big rear wing does NOT turn a Lancer into a EVO or a WRX into a STi.
It now appears Subaru can't even design their own spoilers. WOW
Trow dat in yo' crack pipe and blow dat smoke tru yo' grillz.
1. Spoilers that resemble a superior car do nothing more than attract ricers and euro-wannabes that have more brains than $.
2. Bad mistake (same mistake also made by many German car manufacturers for US Spec cars in the last 10 or so years).
3. A different set of shocks, a camber adjustment, and some stickers do not qualify as "shares a lot with the Elan", and what miniscule level of "help design" do you consider that to be?
4. Reducing the value of a car can be done in many ways
Although there are certain factors which determine the hp/tq on 2 engines that are the same size (such as turbo size, amount of boost used, compression ratio, cam profile, not to mention tuning, etc) a larger bore will allow for larger valves, therefore increasing HP, not torque.
Nobody was saying that the bodywork turned the car into a Porsche, we were just showing that Porsche and Subaru have worked together before.
Subaru cant develop their own spoilers? I guess you dont pay attention to rally and how Subaru put a bunch of vertical vanes along the rear spoiler for more aerodynamic control while sliding sideways; by the next race every other car in the field had adopted a similar spoiler.
Do you actually own a Porsche or are you just some pretentious know-it all that will never be able to afford one? You sure seem to be ridin its nuts pretty hard.
02 WRX Sport Wagon
I have several Porsches, yes, and I've owned 9 in the last 6 years. No, I'm not wealthy (a new STi costs more than either of the older Porsches I have now) but I am an enthusiast of specialty cars, which at my price level happen to be mainly German. I'm talking about cars that set the standards, and which are fun to drive and give you more satisfaction than basic transportation can offer.
I'm not a know-it-all, but I do know quite a bit. These cars are my life.
I'm sure people who know me, as well as the SM crew can confirm this.
yeah, me and dave are buddies, he's ok.. i think he's just giving me a hard time because he hates Subaru's... cause his 944 turbo got beat by one!!
2 / 3 = 0.666
WTF?
Great comparo:
STi with 301whp
vs
944 Turbo with roughly 230whp and a blown head gasket, not to mention 226k miles and on the original turbo! All stock except for 12 psi instead of 10.
If I had just 1 psi more, I would have won.
The temp gauge was maxed out on the 944, and the red light was on, so maybe it made 210whp in that race. It was still a VERY close race.
But no prob, I'm done with excuses.......Just another week or so (I hope) and my other 944 T will be ready. Ready for any STi from a 60 roll to 160 or more.
(I hope an STi is safe at 160)
All it has is a slightly larger turbo (about the size of a small/medium 20g), and larger intake and exhaust. That's it.
2.5 vs 2.5
Not to be cocky, but if I lose to a STi from 60-160, it will only be because it has a larger turbo and at least 10psi MORE than I'll be running, which I'm told is impossible on a stock internal STi. My 944T has stock internals.
Please show me a STi that has trapped more than 120mph in the 1/4 on completely stock internals, and then I might have some competition from 60 up to 125 or so).
So Ming has the fastest STi locally?
subaru=FTW
The Carbon Fibered R6
Genya on here, (jason) with i beleive 390awhp and 440's awtq ran a 11.8 @ 121 i beleive. stock internals.WTF?

Topspeed's silver STi made 590 awhp it ran low 11's letting off @ 3/4's of the track, i beleive that car trapped high 120's and it was also stock block.
with 301awhp we trapped 111.
ming does not have the fastest STi locally, its probably the slowest out of the NON stock turbo STi's around. STi owners who are fast (most of them make over 500awhp) rarely come out, im working on one coming out to run boris/rudy/and possible even evolunchbox/phill
2 / 3 = 0.666
I'm pretty sure there are STIs trapping nearly 130 on stock internals, I know of a few Evos that have done it. It's a timebomb but it will hold together for a while.
HAHA ricer? I would say you're the ricer with you high-and-mighty "Porsche would never waste their time with Subaru" attitude. I prove you wrong you can't back up your statement. All you do is criticize the company for getting Porsche to help in the design.Uh...... I quote:

BTW, You dont know anything about me, dude. I've grew up around Porsches and probably have spent more time modifying, tuning, race-prepping, and driving other peoples' Porsches than you have driving your own. LOL, @ the ricer comment.
You're a disgrace to the Porsche enthusiast community. Get off your high horse your high horse, or you need to switch to a BMW because you sound like a douche bag M3 owner.
